The discussion seems to be about replacing existing media with newer...
The key is replacing thousands of 1979 era discs stored away in "jewel cases" when all of that content can be stored in a single place - with any part instantly accessible from multiple systems concurrently?
CD players ARE still relevant.
For as long as existing ones work, sure. Good luck finding new stock of any quality.

OK, here's a sample of currently available CDPs from just three retailers...
Music Direct
Audio Advisor
Elusive Disc
As to the wishful demise of CDs and CDPs, Mark Twain's reply to his departure is similarly appropriate: "The reports of my death have been greatly exaggerated." :-)
Regards,
Tom
major transport manufacturers like Philips, Pioneer and Teac have already phased out production of many models. Audio Research cannot get replacements for units they've incorporated in the past.
The biggest limitations with CD players is - well CD resolution! I'm happy to have a growing number of higher resolution titles.
The clock is clearly ticking out...
